U.S. Rep. Martha McSally bid farewell to the House of Representatives on Wednesday in brief remarks that didn't suggest what her next move will be.

The Arizona Republican capped her second term by wishing her replacement, Rep.-elect Ann Kirkpatrick, well in the next Congress and urging others in the House to find common ground.

"I humbly ask that you never forget the privilege it is to serve here and why you are here," she said. "Membership in this body is a precious opportunity. Don’t take it lightly and don’t squander it.

"It’s not about us. As soon as we leave here, this institution will move on and candidly, few will really remember us. Use the time wisely. We have been entrusted to solve our nation’s problems and chart its course for a better future. Do the right thing, do it for the right reasons — and get things done."

On Wednesday, McSally noted her honor at having "a front row seat to history" and mentioned McCain among the "American icons" who died and were subsequently honored at the Capitol during her four years in the House.

McSally's remarks Wednesday were gracious in tone, even if they didn't address her next act.

"The people of our great country — the people each of us represent — often have very different views on how to solve our challenges, the proper role of our government, and the priorities for our limited resources," she said.

"Reconciling these differences requires rigorous and robust debate, both in this chamber and outside of it. Disagreements are inevitable, but we can and should set the example to disagree without being disagreeable."
